And truly, it's his own fault...he's given us virtually nothing to get excited about within his campaign. He's hardly squeaky clean (he's a rich real estate developer)...and now I'm reading that they're even thinking about voting for Arnold in BERKELEY. What the hell is the world coming to?...

Schladming, huh? That's where I learned skiing (lots of fun childhood memories here)... ;) What do you mean with Green policy being mainstream here? I think many shied away from voting them because their policy is simply too liberal to many Austrians, who are just too darn conservative at heart (this is coming from a slightly frustrated green voter). As for the far right FPÖ/BZÖ ... ugh, ugh UGH!!! Ditto on everything you said, here. I couldn't believe it when I saw the posters. Keeping my fingers crossed that the BZÖ didn't make it after all. I guess we'll find out in a couple of days after they've counted the last votes. Thanks for sharing the pictures! Schladming, huh?
